Merry Christmas 2016 to All Our Customers

Everyone at Silly Billy’s Toy Shop would like to wish ALL of YOU a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy 2017

Merry Christmas 2016

It has been a very big year for us at Silly Billy’s as many of you will know. After the floods of last year we closed down for a time and then re-opened on 25th March 2016 this year in brand new premises. Our new shop has been getting nothing but great feedback from all of the people that have visited and we honestly love it. It is a complete transformation from our old shop in the Old Mill.

We have had some staff come and go, Alex is now working down South for the Ambulance Service as a Paramedic and we wish him all the best in his career.
Finn is still with us, part-time, and looking to get a new job in his apprenticed work of Electrical Engineering so if anyone is looking for a very talented and enthusiastic electrical engineer then please get in touch and we can put you in touch with Finn. Easiest way to get in touch with us is through Silly Billy’s Facebook page or email us at:-info@sillybillystoyshop.com

Obviously Christmas is one of the busiest times for us as a Toy Shop and this year is our First Christmas in our brand new toy shop. We have tried our utmost to cover all the bases for Christmas 2016 and we hope we have fulfilled the desires of our Customers young and old. If anyone has any feedback we are happy to receive it and you can write reviews for us on Google Plus or Facebook if you would like to. It really helps us to know what people think and if you wish for us to change anything or try and get any products in stock that you would like.

Silly Billy’s are very active on Social Media so if you like you can visit us here:

What else is happening in Hebden Bridge?

Well it’s raining a bit and there is some stormy weather predicted so the BBC or some other outfit have parked a satellite recording Van just down the street from us, potentially to obtain some news-worthy content about heavy precipitation again in Hebden Bridge and potential flooding !! We obviously hope that will not be the case after the devastation caused in the Boxing Day Floods in Hebden Bridge of last year. Nonetheless I received a text today from the Flood Warning Service about potential problems in the Upper Calder Valley.

I completed my own Set of Lego Minifgures Series 16 some time back and it was a good generic set in my opinion with a possibly emphasis on global warming with the amount of Penguin related figures that were included. That particular phenomena is probably not helping the amount of water that is currently falling from the skies!!
